Uploading PDF documents
|
|
Hi and happy 2020! :D
I�m new here and I just wanted to make sure that it isn�t possible to upload PDF documents. I use special fonts and all the format will be changed/lost when downloading the document in the .doc version by the users of the website.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers! |

Another related question... I do not even have Word Office in my computer... You do not accept Free Office documents, right? Those that end in .odt. I just wanted to double check. Thanks again! |

The question about pdf documents has already been asked and answered on the Forum many times, e.g., here and here. In a sentence, this site doesn�t support PDF files. Your contributions must be doc or docx, ppt or pptx files. In this thread, our webmaster explains how to embed fonts into documents.
By the way, you can use LiveWorksheets.com for uploading and sharing pdf files.

Thank you very much! I�m new here and I was looking forward to upload my work but I guess I need to buy Microsoft Office to do so... I understand it though! Have a great 2020! :D |

If you use LibreOffice (a very good office suite that is very similar to MS Office, but it is free), you can save docs in Word format (.doc .docx). Perhaps this would work for you. https://www.libreoffice.org/ Cheers, Douglas |

Well you can simply screenshot your headlines (the ones in the special font) and insert these screenshots instead of the written headline. This way we all can see your special fonts ;) |

Thank you very much for your helpful answers... Truly! :D
Maybe I�ll do it some day cause I strongly believe in sharing. However, I would have to screeshot the whole damn documents or remake them so that it�s only the headlines with the special font. I don�t have time for that at the moment to be honest. PDF is the future, people...
P.D. It ain�t the future but the PRESENT LOL
[The thing is that I�m just discouraged to share my work with so many requirements for the user (wich I�ve thoroughly read) added to the limitations of the webpage (doc format; weight of the document, which I guess would worsen the quality of the cliparts; etc.). I may understand the reasons behind those but I simply don�t have the time for it when there are other options out there to exchange our work online. I honestly hope this is seen as constructive criticism.] |
